A 12x12 Layout to Share!

Hi Everyone!
Here is a layout that I did of our trip to Destin, Fl. I had so many pics from the trip and I did not have time
to scrapbook them all ! I love the way this one turned out! I scraplifted it from a layout that I had seen in CK. I cannot remember the person's name to give credit to!
I hope everyone gets time to be creative this week!
Hugs!

Paris Themed Frames!

Hi Everyone!
I found these cute little black frames at Goodwill for 59 cents each! They were an ugly orange color so I painted them with black arylic paint. I used rub n buff to get the gold highlights. I love that stuff!

The paper is from  Prima's Printery collection. I purchased the Eiffel Tower from Mini Album Scraps.
I dipped the Eiffel tower piece in clear embossing ink and then black embossing powder and heat set it
with my heat gun, I loved the glossy look it has! The mulberrry roses are from IamRoses, they were white and I sprayed them with my New Lindy's Stamp gang starburst sprays in wake you up before you go gold,fuzzy navel peach and then I painted some with Folkart Paint in Metallic Gold.
I adhered them on a black shabby chic flower from Sa Crafters. The paris clock embellishment is from starlit studios.

The other frame has the same paper line in it. All of the roses are from IamRoses.I purchased the adorable dressform from Mini Album Scraps as well. I just used various trims I had in my stash to make her dress.
I loved making these. They are gonna go perfect in my scrapbook room!
Have a Beautiful Day!

I am not MIA !

Hi Bloggers!

I just wanted to let ya'll know that I am not missing in action! I hurt my back last Sunday and I have been in bed all week! Uggh! I have not been able to create at all this week! I finally went to the dr on Thursday..

Diagnosis: Pulled sciatic nerve! Now those of you out there know that have back problems know how painful it can be! I could not sit up straight for more than a few minutes. Only relief was to lay on my right side! My laptop kept me sane!

My wonderful hubby waited on me hand and foot and so did my sweet Rachel. My fabulous odd came to visit me to see if I needed anything! My wonderful Mom checked on me constantly! I am so fortunate that

I have such a loving and caring family! I am doing alot better now so I am going to create tomorrow so I should have a project to post this weekend!

Hugs!

My Desk Sign!

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to share a project that I made. Sa Crafters is having a desk sign contest on you tube, and I

thought I would make myself one. I didn't enter the contest,but I had fun making this. I purchased the wood plaque from Hobby Lobby. I painted it with white acrylic paint,let it dry and then went over it with distress

crackle paint in picket fence and I also used rock candy crackle paint to give it a glossy, crackled shine.

The top and bottom is adhesive backed recollection bling. The metal key is also from Hobby Lobby. I painted it with black acrylic paint and adhered with hot glue.  The vellum butterfly is from Martha Stewart crafts. I added a black feather, some more black recollection bling, and a color me crazy flower with a ribbon flower on top and I made the stick pin using

a corsage pin, glass beads and glossy accents. I loved how my sign turned out!

Here is a closeup of the butterfly and the metal key!

Have a Blessed Day :-)
